Another Pleasant Valley Sunday

I love Sundays. Something about clear skies and church bells just does it for me. Today, we’re spring cleaning at chez mimi. Well, dregs-of-winter cleaning and mucking out, to be completely truthful.

Completed already today:

• Scrubbed floors in den and kitchen with favorite household toy
• Swept laundry room (found a dog’s worth of fur and dust, thank you)
• Wiped down everything in laundry room
• Found missing screwdriver set from utility drawer–this is what happens when you stack things on the dryer and they start breeding
• Washed and folded two loads of towels
• Washed and folded two loads of clothing
• Threatened children with bodily harm unless they put those clean clothes I spent all that time folding (I hate to fold) away properly
• Ironed shirts (I actually like to iron–you can see progress as it occurs)
• Fixed the dog’s collar–he’d caught a jump ring on a pillow and was dragging it around the den looking confused
• Threw out stuff (cannot deemphasize the importance of this action)

Off to bake banana bread and then make lasagna for dinner. Am I Suzy Homemaker, or what??
